Hello everyone! I just registered looking for help....
I'm a Nintendo fan from Italy.
I never been interested in programming or hacking, so consider me a total illiterate about this.
After a system transfer between my old 3ds xl and my new 3ds xl (which worked fine) I lost the data on my sd moving its content to the pc (I did "cut - paste" and then an error occoured). The sd stopped working and the pc can no more read it. Part of the content was however moved correctly to the pc, including digital games and saves.
It was a tragedy for me when I tried this content on the new console and it was unable to read it. I lost saves for more than 700 hours of playtime (about 80 games).......
The transfer of my NNID was correct, so I can redownload games, but it was too much for me to lost so much saves... Then, after many tries and help requests, I found that I could restore my saves doing this:
- new micro sd on the new 3ds
- redownload of one of my games (ex: Gunman Clive)
- take the micro sd to the pc
- go to the proper folder (I worked out with many tries... folder 0040000, then 000c6300, then "data")
- erase the new file and write the old one on it
A big HURRA!!!!!!!!!! when it WORKED!!!
I found this: http://3ds.essh.co/
It helped a lot to recognize the right folders:
Also this helped: http://www.3dbrew.org/wiki/Title_list/eShop_Titles
Now I'm looking to redownload every game I own and restore old files... but... I have problems with some games. I' can't find the names of the right folders... can you help me? I'll post my list down here.
Moreover, is there a simpler way to do what I'm trying to do?
thank you all very much!!!!!
